We acknowledge that we are on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabe, Ininew and Dakota peoples, and on the homeland of the Metis.

We also state that government of Canada has not lived up to their treaty obligations, so through our organizing we strive to come into a renewed treaty relationship. With this, we acknowledge that colonialism is an ongoing and oppressive process, and that we as treaty people, have a responsibility to support de-colonial initiatives, respect Indigenous leadership, and fight for Indigenous sovereignty.
